Sorry Skippy.

If it helps, I had Evening Jewel to start off my Oak/Woodord/Derby wager. Will be sick if any of the other bombs on it come in....

(Oh well... Thats what I get for trying to beat the chalk and get some value.)

[skippy3481]

my pick 3 for the oaks woodford derby looks like this
5-11-13
2-3-7-8
1-3-4-13

Im right there with you...

doubles are 5-11/1-3-4-11-13-16 for $10

nothing like going from a hell of a setup to a buzzkill.... but hey tommorrow is a new day and at least we are both still alive

P.S. thanx for the kind wishes

Way to go by keeping Blind Luck in there...I tried to be "smarter" and left her off my ticket.. Wishful thinking on my part obviously... I really thought Evening Jewel had it though..oh well... I am alive physically, but not with any bets going into tomorrow...

Good luck tomorrow and with all the challenges that the day surely bring.

That's the worst beat I've ever seen, bar none. With the impossible photo and the conso being $676, it's unfathomably bad.

I know it's tough, but shouldn't your toughest beat be when you're best, and get into trouble? You had your shot. She's too good, and she wants it. That's a difficult combination to beat.

They're both bad, but being in trouble and still best is a judgment call. This dude (or chick) was literally an inch or two from $154,000, with a 13-1 single who appeared to get the bob on every replay and got $676 instead. Show me a worse beat than that.

Worse beat is knowing you had the best horse singled, and can't get up. People singling Jewel were looking for trouble happening to a better horse. Didn't happen (not enough.) They had every break (slow pace, lost ground for B.L. etc.) Singled an inferior animal. They think they had a tough break, but they had a lot of breaks. The other horse is too good. That's caused by Hollendorfer picking easy spots.

point taken joey... 154,000 is much worse.

Arletta, she was in there simply as a cover. I really thought the 11 would get a nice run and she did. I just don't see how she lost that photo....

Feel your pain as I had $1.50 of Pick 3's (1K for a buck) and a $1 of Pick 4's. Plus used Evening Jewel in oaks/derby double and pick3 ending today.

If Mission Impazible wins this thing today, I'll have to stay away from bridges and tall buildings. I think he hits the board and may just get his picture taken.
